I still keep IE on my PC cause I use windows, but it hasn't been my main browser for YEARS.

Apart from the other being faster and more user-friendly, IE attracts spyware like none other.

Okaaaaay so Megaupload is working although the toolbar seems to have disappeared???? I'm using a black theme since my black aquatint is gone...*wah wah wah* Am confused about the whole missing toolbar though.

Oddness O_o I d/l the toolbar to see if it would work, and it's fine.

Click the "Tools" tab on you header, you'll see "Add-ons" listed

It should show up there, you can see if you need to update it. If there's still trouble, try uninstalling it (the toolbar), closing Firefox, then re-installing it.

That should work.

But if it doesn't you can always go back to a different version :(

LOL....well okay panic state has been buffered by a Smirnoff Black...anyhoo I've been able to download stuff on megaupload with no prob so I guess the function is there but in the background. If it starts to play de ass I will uninstall, re download and then install it but so far so good.

Upgraded. Love Firefox!!! XDDDDD

...though I had to re-do my layouts to use percentages to place my entries instead of pixels for some reason. o.O

YAY!

Your layout is so amazing! This is the first time I've seen the new one (from the red) 'cause I usually use my inbox >.>;

I checked it with IE7 and it's "OMGSQUEERUKIA!" and it doesn't show up as well in the FF3 browser, the LJ header is there (bunny!). *curses* I honestly am floored with anything looking better in IE, srsly.

Well some of the apps don't work with the new version, but they're updating, I've used FF for years and they're usually fast on fixes, so I'm hopeful.

Otherwise there will be violence.

Awww, thanks, I'm glad you like it. Really? It looks exactly the same in IE, FF3, and Opera for me...well, Opera always throws the header off by 1px, but otherwise it's the same. o.O

By livejournal header, do you mean that gray bar? I've permanently disabled it so I have no idea what it does to the layouts, and so I don't take it into consideration when I design them...though, I probably should.

Yeah I mean the grey bar, with the "explore LJ" tab, search bar and all that.

I'm using XP SP3, so I thought it might be a Java issue, went messing around until I crashed poor FF. *sweatdrop* But that's good for the developers, I guess.

Now Java's fine, and other pages are showing up - but yours is being tricky, I suspect I have a case of the gremlins. XD

I used to use Firefox on my old computer, but the computer shop installed Safari in my Mac, so... *shrugs* I use whatever's there, except for Explorer. Ugh.

I love your icon <3 That sleeping fox is such a cutie.

oohh Safari is very pretty. Firefox is compatiple with the MacOS, but I wouldn't bother since Safari is supposed to be sweet.

And fast.

And like all things Mac, the nerds love it.
